Sounds like Hannibal Chau has been funding the Jaeger program for quite a while giving him exclusive rights to the Kaiju when they're dead. So I am thinking the lead rejoins in 2022-2025.

    Mako is a lil girl when Pentecost saves her if the 2013 being the first attack, I don't think she'd be old enough to pilot a Jaeger in 2021, 8 years... unless she's like 15 years old lol. So anybody guess what year it really is at the end. I am leaning more towards 2025-2030.

    I hope the sequel covers a lot of my questions and hopes/dreams for any sequel being full of action.
    According to this timeline Mako was born in 2003 and joined the Jaeger program in 2021, so she was about 18 at the time. The timeline says Mako was a survivor of the Tokyo attack in 2016, so it wasn't the first kaiju attack. She definitely looked younger than 13 years old when Pentecost saved her if it was 2016 (probably Hollywood decision to make her younger and cuter). Disclaimer is that the wiki timeline is from the official novelization of the movie, not canon material.

    Someone mentioned the title for the second movie is "Atlantic Rim" but I can't find any supporting news for that.

    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?
